Married to the Mob

Rating:
Summary: I wanna divwohwse!!
Review: This is my favorite line from this movie- delivered in the a dead-on "lwong oisland" accent by stunning Michelle Pfeiffer (who looks great as a brunette). She is simply great as the mob wife who takes advantage of the untimeley death of her oily mobster husband (a great job by an early, thin Alec Baldwin), and moves to Manhattan's lower east side and a new life in a single apartment complete with bathtub in the kitchen only to find that her husband's boss (and killer- a deservedly Oscar Nominated Dean Stockwell) has pointed his roving, uh, eye in her direction. Add to the mix Matthew Modine as the FBI agent who falls for her (and who wouldn't- she is radiant in this), the ever-delightful Mercedes Ruehl as the crazy-in-love mob boss' wife, and Joan Cusack, Nancy Travis and Ellen Foley as her circle of "friends" (with their outsized makeup and huge mops of ratted hair, they look like some trio 0f '80's Long Island Medusas), as well as Oliver Platt as Modine's hapless partner, great Miami- kitsch locations and really great music and you will have two really fun-filled hours. Too bad Jonathon Demme got all stuffy and commercial with "Silence of the Lambs" and "Philadelphia"

Summary: This movie is alot of fun when entertaning guest.
Review: This movie is my family's favorite to gather around and have some great laughs. Michelle Phieffer does a wonderful job as a mafia wife/mom to actor Alec Baldwin, when he dies that's when you have to hold on to your seat without fallen on the floor with laughter. I recommend this movie to anyone who wants to see a good comedy film anyday of the week. Although, I do wish it was back in production to buy, because my copy of it got eaten by a friends VCR.

Review: This movie is so funny from the get go. Michelle Marie Pfeiffer just tickels your funny bone from the first time she steps on screen. Matthew modine is one of the funneist actors around. if you buy this movie make sure you get it on DVD, because it comes with the original theatrical trailer and you can skip to your favorite sceens. this movie is a must have.
